A tiny key. When it is lost, we can't start the car or get in the house.
When it is found, it unlocks passage to duty or desire. So much has been written about the key to the heart, etc. There's myriads on the key to the kingdom. The search is endless for the key to power. There's no access to our world on the internet, our home, our friends, or eternity without a key.
The key? Look in the face of a child when we open that door. What does the child do? Walk in. In that face, we see a glimpse, a clue. We stand at the bottom of the stairs and with glee the little one jumps into our arms. The young swimmer jumps into the deep water, because Mom or Dad is nearby.
The simple childlike faith entitles us to the riches of the kingdom. We open the door and are never the same again.
Power comes only to those who hold the key in submission to the Master and vow to use it only for the sole glory and purpose of the Master. Power is lost the second self-interest emerges.
Only in this does the key turn.
